Are you perhaps thinking of the Royal Institute's Christmas lectures - these were always aimed a children and were very entertaining. I don't know if they still do them though. Maybe you could Google for it.

I think you will find it is correct.

THese were originally shown on BBC buy recently they have been on C4.
